hi,
i have a big problem.
i have extracted with perl script the boot.img from updata.app
this works fine... but when i want to extract the boot.img, then i have many errors and the .gz files are not readable.
i have tried it under windows and ubuntu, but still the same :-(
can somebody extract the file ?
here is the .img file
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XX69Z7BM
many thanks
That img file is corrupt, or does not have a ramdisk image within it (only a kernel). Or it is using some non-standard means to store the ramdisk.
What is it from and how did you extract it?
thanks for your replay
the file is from a v845 (huawei 8120).
Firmware: V845 V100R001MYSC02B 236(Malaysia)
from here: huawei
i used the script split_updata.pl, split_bootimg.pl and unyaffs.exe
the boot.img doesn't use yaffs2, it is a raw kernel image combined with a cpio archive of the ramdisk image (and a short header to tell where the files are delimited). Your file has a corrupt header. I was able to extract it for you. Do you want me to attach it for you? I assume you extracted the kernel OK (it worked for me).

I normally use the tools found in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551711
but like I said, your image was corrupt or something. I just hex grepped it for a gzip signature indicating the start of the gzipped cpio ramdisk portion.
Can anybody provide me with the original sysytemui file found in system/apps as I have replaced with the modified without the backup and it is continuosly showing the message that sysui has stopped
Plz
If nobody provides the single systemui.apk you can try to extract it from original firmware by using [WINDOWS][TOOL]Android ICS JB EXT4 ImageFile Unpacker!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1921399
Make a copy from your extracted i9500MEA firmware and rename .tar.md5 into zip.
Then extract system.img.ext4 an unpack with above-mentioned tool.

--extract it yoy will have G7102XWUBNI2_G7102OLBBNI2_XSE.tar.md5 use 7zip and extract it
--When you have completed extracting all of them, you'll find many files including many .img files. For Apps you need to extract system.img. Unlike normal nandroid backup's system.img file which in yaffs, this stock one in different. So, unyaffs tool can't unpack the system.img
--To extract the system.img, download this tool: sgs2toext4 (created by drphrozen). On extracting it you'll have sgs2toext4.jar file.
--Open a command window and set the directory where you have .jar file.
--Now type sgs2toext4.jar and press enter.
--The .jar will run in a new window & will ask you to drag & drop the system.img file there. Do the same and wait till the process completes.
--When the process completes, you'll find a file named system.ext4.img in the same folder where you had the system.img file.
--Now download ext2reader and install it. Then open the program open your system.img.ext4
--Now navigate in to find the apk you need and extract it copy to your phone

Unfortunately this doesn't work. When you drop the system.img.ext4 file onto the sgs2ext4 tool, no file is produced. The tool just keeps endlessly repeating:
"system.img.ext4 32 B 0 B/s"
I think that tool is too old (2.5 years old) and doesn't support the newest Samsung firmwares.

The T-Mobile Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910T) NK4 firmware. I can't find any instructions online on extracting Samsung firmwares other than these, which were originally written up by rwilco12 a long time ago and reposted endlessly.

I found that the Linux method works on my Mac. Took a ton of tinkering and restarting the emulator on my machine.
sgs2ext4.jar did not work for me in Windows. It just hangs.

The SAMMOBILE firmware or the system.img? I'm not yet downloading it. Let's see if I can resume the download.
I managed to dd the recovery image from partition.
I tried use lot of tools from web mkbootimg, extractor, unpack and etc.
But none of it able to extract it contents. Dont know WTF how it build.
I only managed to use binwalk to extract the ramdisk folder but no kernel file,
so without kernel file I'm no able to pack it back.
recovery.img attached below,
Please help, XDA expert around the world. Thanks
https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B9J7sutBoCFlcHRVWUpCUEFZWm8
It's a .img, use 7zip.
Or just mount it to a virtual disk drive.
can you write in system of sharp 404sh?
Please guide for me...
thankyou very much....

Good day guys can someone please help me unpack this firmware allupgrade_v553_8G_1G.bin, I have attached build.prop... Extracting with binwalk gives me a 25 Gig folder. Is there a tool that can unpack this firmware?
